“If he has so many women,” said housewife Carmela Mamone, “this means he’s a real man.

someone needs to change that pesky US law about natural born citizens being president…The first 7 US presidents were not natural born citizens.
Here’s the rundown (with an excerpt from each article) on “far and away” the best leader Italy has ever had. I’ll be writing him in on my next U.S. presidential ballot…

The prime minister’s demeaning attitude toward women, for example, is for him as much a political device as a personal vice. “I think Italians recognize themselves in me,” he recently told a youth rally. “I am one of them. I was poor. I am interested in the things that interest them. I love football. I smile. I love others and, above all else, beautiful women.”

Besides, with Berlusconi as your prime minister, you don’t have to take yourself too seriously. You don’t have to trouble yourself with geopolitics, or the state of the planet, or poverty and failed states. You can stay at home, remain unserious, and argue about the latest legal scandal. And maybe that, too, is part of the Italian prime minister’s appeal.

********************************************************

The truth is that Berlusconi is not only Italy’s head of government, but the nation’s autobiography. He combines generosity, inconsistency, acting talent, stamina, tactical lapses of memory and loyalty. He promises things he doesn’t do, and does things he’s never mentioned. His Italian opponents — even the best, the most honest and lucid — are right to worry. Not about Berlusconi himself. But about the Berlusconi inside them.

********************************************************

“Never in my life, not even once, have I had to pay for a sexual encounter,” Berlusconi said. “And I’ll tell you why: for someone who loves to conquer, the greatest joy is the conquest, so I ask, ‘if you pay, what joy can there be?'”

I guess this is a lot of the german women I’ve known are not too fond of italian men.

Many residents booed Berlusconi as he visited the scene.

I’ve been to Viareggio…you’re no Viareggio.
I’m going to love Italian Politics.
